Request parameter Applicable request types Collection queries order Collection queries async Most non-GET requests Description For more information, see Specifying the attributes to return in a query response. Filters the response data against a set of criteria. Only matching resource instances are returned. Filtering is case insensitive. For more information, see Filtering response data. Specifies how to sort response data. You can sort response data in ascending or descending order based on one of the following: • The attributes of the queried resource type. • The attributes of a resource type that is embedded in the primary resource type or related through a foreign key. • A computed attribute. For more information, see Sorting response data. Setting this parameter to true (?async=true) runs the request in the background. Most active management requests (ones that attempt to change the configuration) support this option. By default, requests are run synchronously. For more information, see Working with asynchronous requests. To use request parameters, append the parameters to the request URI. The first request parameter appended to the URI begins with a ? character. Subsequent request parameters appended to the URI begin with a & character. You can combine request parameters and can use them in any order. Examples Using the select request parameter The following request uses a select request parameter to return the values for the id, severity, and description attributes for all alert instances. Request GET https://1.2.3.4/api/rest/alert?select=id,severity,description_l10n Response [ { "id":"014f999e-96d8-4f85-853c-c6a0e2569088", "severity":"Minor", "description_l10n":"Cluster license installation failed due to Fail to obtain license file.

Request parameter

Applicable request types

Description

For more information, see

Specifying the attributes to return in a query

response

Collection queries

Filters the response data against a set of criteria. Only matching resource

instances are returned. Filtering is case insensitive.

For more information, see

Filtering response data

order

Collection queries

Specifies how to sort response data. You can sort response data in

ascending or descending order based on one of the following:

•

The attributes of the queried resource type.

•

The attributes of a resource type that is embedded in the primary

resource type or related through a foreign key.

•

A computed attribute.

For more information, see

Sorting response data

async

Most non-GET requests

Setting this parameter to true

(?async=true)

runs the request in the

background. Most active management requests (ones that attempt to

change the configuration) support this option. By default, requests are run

synchronously.

For more information, see

Working with asynchronous requests

To use request parameters, append the parameters to the request URI. The first request parameter appended to the URI begins with a ?

character. Subsequent request parameters appended to the URI begin with a & character. You can combine request parameters and can

use them in any order.

Examples

Using the select request parameter

The following request uses a select request parameter to return the values for the id, severity, and description attributes for all alert

instances.

Request

GET https://1.2.3.4/api/rest/alert?select=id,severity,description_l10n
